Animal Songs But Not Many Animals

"Despite the name and cover there were disappointingly few real animals in this video. Mostly this is just recycled song clips about make-believe animals from the PBS Barney & Friends TV show. As such it's no better and no worse than any of the free episodes on TV."
Great teaching tool

"After renting this DVD from Netflix, my 27 month old daughter watched this three times and said her ABC's from start to finish. I couldn't believe it since I had been working with her for months and she could only get to G. This was such a success, I am going to buy the DVD so we can keep practicing and hopefully this will help my other daughter when she gets a little older.
I think they did a fantastic job with all of the animals. It is difficult to come up with animals for every letter of the alphabet. Even though they were a little creative, they did a great job. For the letter U they did say Unicorn, but they did explain that a unicorn is not a real animal. Also, if I remember right, they did use veterinarian for the letter V, but they also explained that a veterinarian is an animal doctor. Not quite sure what the other reviewer is so upset about."
My favorite Barney video

"I am pretty new to Barney, but this is my favorite Barney video of the 5 that I own. I am kinda confused by the other comment stating there are mostly make-believe animals, since there is only one imaginary animal for all the letters of the alphabet. There are 25 other real animals on the video and a songs for almost every animal. My son loves this DVD."
Barney with ABC's

"I never really liked Barney when my children were growing up. Now that I am a grandmother things do change. This DVD has a new approach to learning. Young children could easily learn without even know it. It also has a special feature of FiFi & the Flowertots. Dalyla just loves. So we got 2 for the price of 1."
